PR 1.0 , File verification error 1301

[Pusc.IT]

When i click "play", the launcher stops on file verification for about 20 seconds, then this message pops up:
------
File verification Error
1301: Unable to contact verification server. Please check your internet connection and try again.
------
Then i can choose "OK" and it return to the Launcher's menu, or "SKIP" and it says that if i skip file verification i won't be able to play on public servers.


All my firewalls are offline and i experienced it while talking on teamspeak, and everyone assured me that i wasn't lagging at all.

I tried to update the launcher, but it states that i'm running on the latest version (1.015 i think).

Any ideas?

Please keep retrying to update

otherwise, uninstall PR_Beta and
reboot
verify your torrent integrity
delete Documents\ProjectReality folder
reinstall PR_Beta
do NOT import profiles from PR0.981
manually enter username and password
attempt to update again.

The joys of Beta testing.

Done everything you said, i retrieved my account with Gamespy, i still get the same error and it keeps saying i'm running the latest version. I searched on google "PR 1.0 error 1301", looks like i'm the very first guy to get this error, did i win anything?

Thanks for your time Litoralis.

SOLVED, it was a simple conflict between the ports used by my other computers i have and the PR launcher.

[WarGrade]

Hello, i've been having the same problem as you on the 1.0 Release, could you please explain how you fixed it?

I think that it would be very helpful for other people(If they have this problem) It would be great if you could help out.

Thank You

[LITOralis.nMd]

Lol, I don't have info on the 1301 error code yet.

I agree with previous poster, I dont understand how to solve the port problem. Have 2 bf2 accounts and PR 1.0 on both computers and its only one that says the 1301: error.

So please explain how to fix the portthingie ..cause I have no clue how to do it.

Found the solution !!!

You have ports blocked, either through a software firewall or hardware router, of the ports used to query the master server list on the gamespy network.

Particularly to your problem you need to open this port:
28900 (Master Server List Request)

Other ports that could be opened:
- opening the following ports
UDP: 1024-1124,16567,27900,28910,1500-4999
TCP: 1024-1124,29901


For me personally it was enough to open 28900


Go into Windows firewall, double click, click Exceptions, choose "Addport", name port to whatever u want, add portnumber: 28900 on second row... TADA!!!

Tell me if it solved ure problem

how do you change ports?

[WarGrade]

Hi

Do i need a port end? and what protocol? (I'm doing it through tp-link) because stupid Norton 360 has taken all control of the firewalls.

[Chiki_Koont]

It didnt help opening port 28900, neither the TCP or UDP port. It didnt help disabling the firewall altogether either.

[WarGrade]

It didn't work for me either.

Well i opened the 28900 port and it still did not work. Any other suggestions?

[LITOralis.nMd]

Also need to open 29900 , gamespy uses that for server browser functions ingame. I forgot if tcp or udp and not in front of my usual PC. can't check. So add both.

[Owens5054]

how do you change ports? I mean can you give like a step by step on how to do so....?

[LITOralis.nMd]

you have to provide info on the manufacturer and exact model of your router. Differs by router.
